# Agents Overview

> Build and manage AI agents in Sontairo

Agents are the core of Sontairo. Each agent is an AI-powered assistant with custom instructions and tool access.

## Creating an Agent

1. Navigate to **Agents** in the sidebar
2. Click **Create Agent**
3. Enter a name for your agent
4. Optionally click **Generate** to auto-fill a description and system prompt
5. Customize the system prompt to define the agent's behavior
6. Select a provider key (the AI model to use)
7. Click **Create**

## Agent Configuration

| Field             | Description                                                    |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**          | A human-readable name for the agent                            |
| **Description**   | What the agent does (shown in lists)                           |
| **System Prompt** | Instructions that define the agent's behavior and capabilities |
| **Provider Key**  | The AI model and API key used for inference                    |

## Connecting Tools

After creating an agent, connect tools from the agent's detail page:

1. Open the agent's settings
2. In the **Connections** section, link connectors
3. The agent can now use these tools during task execution and chat

## Using Agents

Agents can be used in three ways:

* **Chat** — Start a conversation from the Chat page or the agent's detail panel
* **Tasks** — Send a one-off task instruction from the Tasks page
* **Automations** — Build durable workflows from triggers, logic, AI, and explicit actions
